If you disagree with the outcome of a decision, you may be able to request a review of that decision.
The first step is an internal review of the decision. An internal review of the decision must be requested within 20 days of receiving the notice of the decision. This should be done in writing and addressed to:
Principal Officer
Right to Information
Department of Treasury and Finance
GPO Box 147
HOBART TAS 7001
or email:
rti@treasury.tas.gov.au
In some cases, you may also be able to seek an external review by the Ombudsman:
- If we do not get back to you in the timeframe allowed then we may be taken to have refused your application and you are able to make an application for external review to the Ombudsman without applying for an internal review first.
- If you have applied for internal review and are unhappy with the internal review decision, then you may apply to the Ombudsman for an external review.
Information on reviews by the Ombudsman can be found on the Ombudsman Tasmania website.
